Galadrielle Allman

Galadrielle Allman was born in Macon, Georgia in 1969, the same place and time as her family's legendary band, the Allman Brothers Band. Her father, Duane Allman, is considered one of the greatest Rock guitarists of all time. Galadrielle was raised primarily in Berkeley, California, where she still lives happily. She studied writing at Sarah Lawrence College, always hoping to tell her family's story. On the eve of her 40th birthday, she began to write her first book: Please Be With Me, A Song for My Father Duane Allman. It was published by Spiegel & Grau in March, 2014 and was chosen by Amazon as a best book of 2014 in two categories: Memoir and Entertainment. She is currently working on a novel that continues to mine the subjects of family, identity and music.
